Although you are right that this is a problem, I'm not certain it's THE problem. Both the default value for 'tramp-shell-prompt-pattern' and your recommended modification actually match the screen output higher up. They both match the first '#' in the output portion:
################################################
# WPS Data Warehouse
# DEVELOPMENT Database

# 10.2.0 Linux
#
# Oracle Home is /db/d/dw/v1/product/10.2.0
#
# Oracle Sid is set to DWD1
#
################################################
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi Stewart,
The problem is your shell prompt on the CentOS machine:
[alaldwps003.choicepoint.net]:
It does not match `tramp-shell-prompt-pattern'. Either you change the
prompt there, or you adapt `tramp-shell-prompt-pattern', for example
like this:
(setq tramp-shell-prompt-pattern "^[^]#$%>\n]*[]#$%>]:? *\\( \\[[0-9;]*[a-zA-Z] *\\)*")
Best regards, Michael.
